A story featuring a Tesla car and the online marketplace website Craigslist recently left the internet in fits of laughter.
It starts like a decent joke – a Tesla owner walked into a mechanic’s shop, insisting his electric car needed an oil change.
While Teslas are known for being electric and oil-free, the owner kept a straight face, claiming he bought the car on Craigslist and was just following ‘standard’ car maintenance rules.
It was all in good fun, leaving everyone laughing and enjoying the lighthearted prank.

Pranking the mechanic by asking for an oil change in Tesla
This entire prank was recorded by Vlog Creations and shared on YouTube.
The mechanic, understandably puzzled, questioned whether the Tesla had been converted to gasoline.
However, the owner stood firm, stating that Teslas require an oil change every 3,000 miles, like any other car.
The mechanic, though doubtful, decided to play along and tried to figure out where the oil could possibly go in an electric car.
Things got even funnier when the mechanic started looking for an oil chain, only to realize Teslas don’t have one.
Despite the absurdity, the Tesla owner kept the prank alive, confidently claiming the car’s new model status and joking that it was a hit with the ladies.
Everyone had a great time
In the end, the mechanic went along with the request and placed a sticker for the next oil change in 3,000 minutes instead of miles.
It was only when the pranksters revealed the hidden cameras that the mechanic realized it was all a setup.
Instead of being annoyed, he laughed along, appreciating the joke.
Everyone had a great time, just like the guys who made fun of this Ferrari Enzo replica listed for just $2,000.
Ross and his team from Vlog Creations celebrated the successful prank with the mechanic.
